2015 Volkswagen Beetle - Great Little Car

The quality is great. There are no interior rattles and the road noises are quiet given this is a convertible. The Convertible top does catch once in a great while though causing you to try again and again to work it. The trunk space is a bit limited but is workable for shopping trips.

2015 Volkswagen Beetle - Best Bang for the Buck

I purchased this vehicle brand new from a local VW dealership. I am impressed by how smooth the acceleration is with this car. I did not notice any hiccups or anything when accelerating. Compared to the prior years VW Beetles this one has definitely improved. You cannot beat German ingenuity and craftsmanship. The Beetle is still a smaller vehicle, yet there is more than enough room to fit comfortably 4 adults and a small dog. I take my dogs with me everywhere and love how easy it is to get them in and out of this car. Now it is a little bit more difficult to get a car seat in and out of the back seat, but otherwise there is plenty of room to make this a family car.

Story

One thing I can remember doing with my 2015 VW Beetle was going out on the beach with the car. I did not take it to far out as it is not 4 wheel drive, but I loved going out on the sand none the less. We drove up and down the beach in our new car. We prayed to God that our precious Beetle would not get stuck, and we did not. My wife and I opened up the trunk once we found a nice place to go to... (more)

I did not take it to far out as it is not 4 wheel drive, but I loved going out on the sand none the less. We drove up and down the beach in our new car. We prayed to God that our precious Beetle would not get stuck, and we did not. My wife and I opened up the trunk once we found a nice place to go to on the beach and set up camp. We were preparing for sunrise the next morning. We rigged up some seats for the storage area in the rear and also a canopy so we could enjoy ourselves on the beach all day/night long. It was an amazing day/night/weekend. Waking up and watching the sunrise on a Florida beach out the back of our bug was awesome!

Pros

I absolutely love the gas mileage this car gets. I am getting above the average mpg. I get about 35 mpg on average when I am highway commuting, which is what most of my miles are on this car anyway due to how far away from work I live. In the city I am even impressed by the mileage. I am getting about 30 mpg on the city streets. I fill my tank about every week in a half or so. This car makes a perfect commuter. Another thing I love about the car which is probably one of the reasons I bought it would be the screen on the dashboard. The screen is big enough to see details on the map which ar... (more)

The screen is big enough to see details on the map which are much needed in unfamiliar areas.

Cons

One problem I experienced with my Beetle was the heated seats. They worked for about the first 2 weeks I owned the vehicle, and then all of the sudden they stopped functioning. I did however contact VW about this and they got back to me within 2 business days with a solution. They had me bring the car into a local dealership and fixed the problem within about an hour. Otherwise I have had no issues with my Beetle.
